You said some hate romance but didn't say anything about romance after and started talking about his brother. So whole show is bad because he ignored his brother and what does that have to do with romance ?

I didn't watch this show yet so I was just wondering how it was before investing my time into it.

He prob thinks he will be with his gf after spell is over and doesn't wanna just cut her off because he is in that relationship for pragmatic reasons and because of his dad and mayor connections. He even tried pause until it resolves but that didn't work. I wouldn't call it cheating when spell is making him chase the FL.

It's vague scripted convo setup by producers to create some drama. It's in all of these shows. They put encounters together and give vague hints if needed and let it play out. So they have material for overall arch and enough drama, reactions, etc. for episodes.

Julie and Robin is their core carry scripted stuff where she instantly fallen in love and is wolf at the same time. It's just too good to be true. They created most engaging story for her because her agency prob got the best deal. Considering her reveal at the end with whole new song being promo for her music / new album.

The way she instantly fell in love and at same time is also a wolf is just to good to be true and carried the whole show. With many other moments in there with other cast you can see when producer encouraged interactions, etc. It's standard practice but atleast it was done well here and made me watch it so you can just not take it as reality show but like watching a fiction or some drama and ignore it being "real".

Idk why decided to dress girls in wolves at the end. It looked stupid and you couldn't see their reactions.

The whole bus scene makes no sense and it could all be solved by him not letting sus guy on the bus in the first place especially since he doesn't have the ticket.

It's not even the first time they made him speed with the bus. This time he is endangering more people then before. Him going crazy with the bus makes no sense to me and seems ridiculous way to solve the problem that wouldn't even exsist in the first place if he didn't let him on.

Bus scene will still be stupid even if he goes with bus to police station to scare the guy or something.

Well he is only interested in operatives that can be manipulated and controlled to do the job. He is useless to him because he can't be controlled. That guy is a dickhead but he doesn't have anything against slow people. He is useless to him because he can't use him for his needs but he became useful to him when he saw he can use dad to manipulate son into joining and using son for powers.

I don't see much of that saying anything about the genre itself.

Well one example of ML doing stupid stuff is chasing SML who is a cop and obstructing arrest of unhinged person who can hurt people. Like that is arrestable lvl of stupid and being culprit in the bad that unhinged person continues to do after because he got away. That's why I said doing nothing would be better. Same apply in other examples.

ML is the type of stupid where doing nothing will result in better outcome

I am not saying what he said is ok. This was argument against incest implications.

I don't think that is true considering he enforced her to persue and cling to ML to be her dream.

This is just scripted show anyway so I don't think anyone puts in real emotions or date.

Just idols getting their paychecks.

It's ok adaptation but you are saying like season 1 didn't have insane budget.

They had 17 million per episode which is insanely high budget to give to team that made cowboy bebop awful adaptation. Like that is among highest budgets. That is more then game of thrones or mandalorian for example and they didn't even need to spend a lot on actors which gives them even more money for production. Show doesn't look on par with the budget and we also got only 8 episodes.

Most people dropped it at start so only big fans who can't take any critique stayed, that's why it's so one sided.

It doesn't have many watchers despite being on weekend slot, big networks and on netflix.

Netflix

Watching this show on 2x speed still feels slow.

The amount of slowmo and repeated flashbacks padding in this is insane.

I don't speak russian but it so obviously sound not correct even to someone who doesn't speak it.

I understand they have issues with finding good foreigner actors for the budget but I don't think finding someone who can speak Russian would be hard in Korea.

They showed it in episode 5. Upside down car and explosion. It was car accident that happened due to bad luck. It wasn't assassination. That also showed why her daughter survived.

That makes no sense to me tbh 🤣

I don't think this is the type of genre or audience to pull this off successfully.
